[2] #1 what is the arrow doing?
#4 what are those gentlemen's names?
#5 it's a cryptopix. Put the two things together.
#14 what is the hand doing to the animal? I think the black lines denote movement of some sort.

[10] You need just one of the clues in 4. Whichever one is easier for you.

What is with #14?

[13] I did that for #5 but my answer doesn't fit...

[16] figure out the verb that is happening to the canine. Ususally the canine is doing the verb. And I hope this isn't too salty.

Anyone want to help check mine? I can't see my error.

[19] It's a straightforward rebus. You have to figure out what the electrical thing is. You can get them in the airport.

I have something for 13 but I'm not sure its right.

I can't figure out what I've got wrong; everything fits and is spelled right, but I'm still getting "that's not correct."
vandy
Posted on Mon Apr 14, 2008 07:29 PM |
Thanks [18], but I can't find anything that fits #14. Any other salt for the dog?
just got it. Nevermind.

I've looked everywhere and can't get a handle on #5 & #12. Someone help, please.

(28) What does a dog do with his tail?

[23] thanks for the offer. TG sent.
[30] use brackets, not parentheses for linking a post number

[12] I might be dense, but I've found 420 slang terms for the plant pictured in #13....I don't feel like going through all of them.
EDIT: I solved the puzzle about 3 minutes after sending the message. Didn't find the answer in IMDB....had to do several google searches instead. A common-variety lawn picture of the plant would have been better. Thanks.

Just 'cause it fits doesn't make it right, does it?? Figured it out now.

[32] If you have the proper lists, it shouldn't take that long, especially with the first part.
scoutmom
Posted on Mon Apr 14, 2008 07:49 PM |
[32] It is one of the MOST common slang terms!

I got them all, but I feel like I'm missing some subtle aspect of the theme. Is there something these all have in commmon? I'd appreciate a TG if there's something I might be missing.

#5 is completly eluding me...any salt still hanging around?
cyncat
Posted on Mon Apr 14, 2008 08:37 PM |
[38] The first image is that of a gadget that will allow you to plug in your electrical items in some foreign countries.
The hypercross answer is a 4-syllable word.

[39] that's what I thought it was, but my answer seems to start with an A - and that doesn't work with the word I think that is...
NM - I figured it out...it DOES start with an A...the word I was thinking of starts with a C. lol...thanks for a fun puzzle and for your help

I'm still missing something, somewhere. Heatherlouwho never responded, so I am stuck right where I was last night :-(

[32] Some solvers might need 2 separate IMDB lists, one for either side of Kramer vs. Kramer.
Yup, a picture of some intrusive plant in the lawn would have been a good clue. Thanks.

[42], [43] thanks for the offer, but as you see, heatherlouwho got back to me. I had a couple typos, but one wrong (actually 2, but other comments here corrected that before heatherlouwho did)

Love it. Love the theme, and especially the title. of course, the fact that I got them all without looking anything up helps :)
